Ultraviolette is expanding globally, and the recently unveiled F77 Mach 2 has officially started being exported to the European market – a milestone marked this Tuesday.
The ceremonial event was attended by India’s Minister of Heavy Industries, HD Kumaraswamy, at the company’s factory in Bengaluru.
The Ultraviolette F77 Mach 2 features an electric motor capable of producing 27 kW of power (36.2 hp) and 90 Nm of torque – figures that increase to 30 kW (40.2 hp) and 100 Nm for the Recon variant. The top speed is 155 km/h. Both versions include three riding modes (Glide, Combat, and Ballistic).
The battery has an energy capacity of 7.1 kWh (10.3 kWh in the Recon), with a range of up to 211 km (323 km in the Recon). Charging time from 20 to 80 percent can vary between 45 minutes and five hours, depending on the variant and type of charger used.
The frame is made of aluminum in a trellis design. The F77 Mach 2 features an adjustable inverted fork in the front and a preload-adjustable mono-shock at the rear.
The braking system, equipped with Bosch ABS, consists of hydraulic discs – featuring a fixed four-piston caliper in the front and a floating single-piston caliper in the rear. The wheels measure 17 inches.
Quoted by The Economic Times, the minister stated: ‘The expansion of Ultraviolette into the European market represents a defining moment for India’s automotive industry, demonstrating our nation’s ability to compete on the global stage’.
Meanwhile, Ultraviolette’s co-founder and CTO, Niraj Rajmohan, emphasized the importance of the European market: ‘Europe is a key market for electric mobility, and we believe the F77 Mach 2 will redefine the perception of Indian electric vehicles in this region. This is just the beginning of a larger journey as we continue to push the boundaries of EV innovation’.
